CONTROL DEVICE, CONTROL METHOD, AND STORAGE MEDIUM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240109550 titled 'CONTROL DEVICE, CONTROL METHOD, AND STORAGE MEDIUM

Simplified Explanation

The control device described in the abstract is a system that proposes steering adjustments to a driver in order to avoid a risk object on the side of the mobile object's traveling direction. It includes a determiner to assess whether the assumed reference position of the mobile object intersects a traveling road boundary, and a proposer to suggest steering adjustments based on this assessment.

  • Determiner assesses if assumed reference position intersects traveling road boundary
  • Proposer suggests steering adjustments based on determiner's assessment

Potential Applications

This technology could be applied in autonomous vehicles, advanced driver assistance systems, and collision avoidance systems.

Problems Solved

This technology helps prevent collisions with risk objects on the side of the road by proposing steering adjustments to the driver.

Benefits

- Increased safety on the road - Enhanced driver assistance - Improved collision avoidance capabilities

Potential Commercial Applications

The technology could be integrated into autonomous vehicles, commercial fleets, and transportation systems to enhance safety and reduce the risk of accidents.

Possible Prior Art

One possible prior art could be existing collision avoidance systems that use sensors to detect obstacles and propose steering adjustments to avoid them.

What are the specific technical components of the determiner and proposer in the control device described in the abstract?

The determiner is configured to assess whether the assumed reference position of the mobile object intersects a traveling road boundary, while the proposer is responsible for suggesting steering adjustments based on the determiner's assessment.

How does this technology compare to existing collision avoidance systems in terms of effectiveness and reliability?

This technology appears to offer a more proactive approach to collision avoidance by proposing steering adjustments before the mobile object reaches a critical point. This could potentially enhance effectiveness and reliability compared to systems that only react to obstacles once they are detected.


Original Abstract Submitted

a control device of an embodiment is a control device that makes a proposal for steering to avoid a risk object present on a traveling direction side of a mobile object to a driver of the mobile object and includes a determiner configured to determine, when it is assumed that the mobile object is caused to travel straight from a current position of the mobile object in a current traveling direction for a predetermined time, whether an assumed reference position of the mobile object intersects a traveling road boundary, and a proposer configured to suppress the proposal when it is determined that the reference position intersects the traveling road boundary, and makes the proposal when it is determined that the reference position does not intersect the traveling road boundary.
